When my father married my mother in 1943, he gave my mother a 1937 crown coin and told her to keep it in the back of her purse and not to spend it. This would mean that she always felt that she was protected and would always have money if she really needed it.

When I was married in 1970 my husband who had heard this story, obtained a 1937 crown coin for me and I have always kept it in my wallet, and I have always had enough for my needs.

A friend recently fell on hard times, partly through external (外部的）circumstances and partly through poor planning. Friends and I have loaned her money, paid her bills, given her food, and even tried to teach her budget techniques, but none of them has been a solution. She has just slipped deeper and deeper into financial trouble and depression.

Last week she looked pale and unwell, very depressed and hopeless, very sad for a friend to see and I then thought about how the crown coin, a physical reminder of another's care and love had protected me, so I went to the bank for a $ 100 dollar-bill.

I told my friend the story and asked her to keep the $ 100 in the back of her wallet. It turned out that she didn't have a wallet, so she put the money in a little pencil case where she kept her coins. She immediately felt better—“I feel rich, and thank you for being a good friend,” she said, and we were both a bit teary.

I went home and remembered a little wallet I had that I’d never used, and thought, “I’ll give that to my friend. ” I opened it, and inside, found $ 100.

4．What did the 1937 crown coin from the author’s father mean to her mother?

A．His concern for her. B．His pity and protection for her.

C．His care and love for her. D．His pride and respect for her.

5．Where did the author’s friend keep the $ 100 dollar-bill?

A．In the back of her wallet. B．In a little pencil case.

C．In the pocket of her raincoat. D．In the layer of her suitcase.

6．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A．The author became rich all of a sudden.

B．The author's friend would receive a wallet as a gift.

C．The author's friend was not touched by her story.

D．The author felt uncomfortable when receiving the bill.

7．What can be the best title for the text?

A．A crown coin B．The help to a friend

C．A hard life D．A gift from my father

Moscow city authorities have begun using comics（漫画） with characters from Russian fairy tales to explain to migrants（移民） how they should behave. They say a 100-page guide is needed to "keep a positive image" of the city and could help reduce "tensions" between natives and migrants. But critics have pointed out that foreign migrants and natives may be regarded as antagonists in the manual(手册).

Russians and migrants have repeatedly flooded in Moscow recently. Many migrants from ex-Soviet republics in Central Asia, the Caucasus（高加索） and North Caucasus, arrive in Moscow every year, attracted by the capital’s job opportunities and relatively high salaries. A significant number of them work in the Russian capital illegally.

The new guide in Russian seeks to explain the "dos" and "don’ts" to migrants. They are urged not to cause trouble, by staring at women, or eating or talking loudly on the streets. They are also warned that the police may routinely（例行公事） stop them to check their documents.

In the manual, Russia’s famous "three warriors" are meant to represent the city’s law enforcement agencies（执法机关）, while Prince Yuri Dolgoruky (a historical character) is used for tours around Moscow.    Meanwhile, Vasilisa the Wise and The Snow Maiden test the reader on Russia’s language and history. A special section of the book explains the importance of following Moscow’s strict residency and employment rules, stressing that migrants could otherwise be deported(驱逐出境) or banned from entry.

The manual was written primarily for illegal migrants, Alexander Kalinin, who heads the group Support for Working Migrants in Moscow, told BBC Russian.

"We want to raise their level of law awareness," he added.

Migrant characters had initially(最初) been identified as representatives of different nationalities, but the book’s authors later decided to drop this idea so as "not to offend anyone", said Mr. Kalinin.

"The old conflict between Russian heroes and non-Slavic invaders is being revived," Yevgeny Varshaver, a migration expert told BBC Russian. He also suggested that the language used in the book would be "difficult" to understand for some migrants who were not native Russian speakers.

8．The underlined word "antagonists" in Paragraph 1 can probably be replaced by "_____". 

A．friends                  B．acquaintances

C．cooperators              D．opponents

9．People from other countries come to Moscow "_____".

A．to find well-paid jobs      B．to have a new lifestyle

C．to enjoy the fine climate      D．to experience a new culture

10．The third paragraph is mainly about"_____".

A．consequences the migrants may suffer

B．the purpose of publishing the handbook

C．the measures to attract foreign migrants

D．characters and their functions in Russian fairytales

11．Which of the following would be the best title of the text?

A．Ways to help foreign migrants to settle in Russia

B．Characters from Russian fairy tales have new jobs

C．More and more foreign migrants to work in Moscow

D．Moscow fairy tale comics to help migrants behave

D

Both honeybees and ants are social insects that live in groups called colonies. They survive by means of their collective intelligence. Their decision-making power is distributed throughout the group; that is, no one ant or bee makes decisions for the group. Instead, they work together. As Deborah M. Gordon, a biologist of Stanford University, says, “Ants aren’t smart. Ant colonies are.” The same is true for bee colonies. Although bees and ants are quite different physically, they have a lot in common in terms of their behavior. Specifically, honeybees and ants have similar roles within the colony, both have communication systems, and both have the capacity of learning.

Ants communicate by using chemicals called pheromones, which can alert others to danger or to a food source. For example, when worker ants find a promising source, they let the rest of colony know how to find it by leaving a trail of pheromones on the way back to the colony. The other ants pick up the message using their sense of smell. Bees, on the other hand, use movement to communicate with each other. Worker bees send message to each other by means of a “dance”. Different speeds and movements send different messages. For example, when worker bees called scouts go out to find a new hoe for the colony, they return and do a dance for the other worker bees that indicates the location of the new home and how suitable it is. The faster the scouts dance the better the new location is.

Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning. One Chinese study found that bees can be trained to learn and remember a route to a food source. The researchers also found that bees can be taught to recognize hidden objects and use the concepts of “sameness” and “difference” to accomplish certain tasks. Ants take this one step further. Recent America research has shown that ants not only have the ability to learn, but also can teach their foraging skills to other younger ants. They observed that older ants accompany young ants in search of food and teach them the route and how to avoid obstacles.

As we can see, the social behavior of honeybees and ants is quite similar. Both coordinate complex actions and accomplish crucial survival tasks by cooperating in groups consisting of many individuals. Unintelligent as they may be as individuals, as groups they often show amazing brilliance as they go about their everyday activities.

12．What do ants and bees have in common?

A．They make use of collective intelligence.

B．They live in similar-sized colonies.

C．They have small leadership groups that make all decisions.

D．They use the same method to communicate with each other.

13．What docs the speed of a bee’s dance indicate?

A．The distance to a neighboring colony.

B．The quality of a new colony location.

C．The discovery of a new food source.

D．The direction to a potential food source.

14．In paragraph 3, how docs the author demonstrate the idea that Honeybees and ants are both capable of learning?

A．By using statistics.                 B．By explaining reason.

C．By presenting study findings.       D．By stating opinions.

15．What does the underlined part “foraging skills” refer to in the third Paragraph?

A．The skills of communicating.       B．The skills of sacking food.

C．The skills of leaning.             D．The skills of finding a new home.

 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Rising through stages to realize ourselves

Many modern people have the problem that they don’t know who they are and what their purpose is.   16  . Once high school seniors graduate, they seem to lose their identity. They once studied hard. But after they stop working, they begin to lose their way.

In the theory of the Hierarchy of Needs（需求理论）, Abraham Maslo, put forward a similar situation, which consists of the five levels of a person’s need. The fifth and final level is self-realization, which is where our final achievement lies.   17  .

I think self- realization has three major aspects. The first stage is acceptance, the second stage is discovery and the last stage is perseverance.

Acceptance is the first stage. We should be reminded that we are all born unique, so we all have our own strengths and weaknesses. Only when we understand these, can we pursue them or

change them.   18  .

Once we’ve accepted ourselves, we can discover what we are interested in and what we want to be.   19  , but indeed we should live for ourselves. So before we start working towards a purpose, we should ask ourselves “Is this what we truly desire?” and “Is this going to change the situation we’re in?”

The last stage is perseverance.   20  . Those who can self-realize are people who focus on the things they want to change.

Through the three stages, we could gain recognition of ourselves. And by this point, whatever our lives were like, we would be able to stand tall, confident of ourselves.

A. It’s nothing to a man of perseverance

B. Only by acceptance of the past can we change it

C. This is especially common among college students

D. Many people tend to go along with social expectations

E. Being objective and yet tolerant is the key to acceptance

F. It is the process of knowing ourselves and finding a purpose

G. Exploring our potential isn’t going to be done in a short time

I stood by my window overlooking the    23   , having nothing better to do. But as it turned out, I was soon to learn about something    24    in life.

As I watched several people go by, get into their cars and go off, I    25    an old man on a bicycle with a bucket on its    26    and a basket rags and bottles on its back-carriage.

There was a noticeable touch of   35    in the way he seemed to be doing things—    36   the windscreen, then standing back to admire it; scrubbing the wheels and    37   , standing back to see what they look like after the scrub.

It was a    38    to learn, I felt. At no age need one have to beg for a    39   if one has good health and is willing to work hard. For a while I felt    40    of myself. Young as I am—just sixteen, and there was this old man who must have been usefully engaged perhaps before the sun appeared above the horizon.
